My parents and younger sister visited Korea last week, so I brought them to my campus for half a day instead of only doing tourist spots. Just sharing in case anyone has family coming: at my school, the student office said visitors can usually enter most outdoor campus areas, and the library lobby was okay as long as we were quiet and respectful. The cafeteria was actually a nice stop too, because they could see my normal student life and not just the pretty parts of Seoul 🙂 It felt simple, but my family said seeing where I study made them understand my life here much better.

La semana pasada mis padres y mi hermana menor visitaron Corea, así que los llevé a mi campus durante medio día en lugar de ir solo a lugares turísticos. Lo comparto por si a alguien le viene la familia: en mi universidad, la oficina de estudiantes dijo que los visitantes normalmente pueden entrar a la mayoría de las áreas exteriores del campus, y el vestíbulo de la biblioteca también estaba bien siempre que fuéramos silenciosos y respetuosos. La cafetería también fue una parada muy agradable, porque pudieron ver mi vida estudiantil normal y no solo las partes bonitas de Seúl 🙂 Fue algo sencillo, pero mi familia dijo que ver dónde estudio les hizo entender mucho mejor mi vida aquí.
